Sam, >From the context, I think Deryck meant "all the money we (the whole of WIkimedia) raise (through the fundraiser) will nominally pass through the FDC". I took him to be saying that every pound which WMUK raises independently reduces by a pound the amount we would be requesting from the FDC. In that sense, we don't "steal" donors, just direct their contributions through a different channel that may attract an extra 25% in Gift Aid.
Have another read and see if you agree with my understanding.
